We all know "Lean In" is a ploy to get her into the national election psyche. She is probably a better candidate than most of the other jokers. However, we really can't take the book that seriously nor it's pseudo science. I listened to a NPR event by her and was so surprised how she used stereotypes about men to dispel stereotypes about women and no one once called her on it! It's very simple. She now has "business" background, she is using Lean In to recruit activist women who she needs as volunteers. Her Facebook credentials will endear her to younger voters as well. So she will get some of independents who might like her business background. She will get the female and youth vote. So on paper she is a good candidate and the book is her gateway.


Sandberg Schmidt 2016. You heard it here first. They're in the middle of PR marathon saturated with juicy election tidbits: North Korea, Facebook, etc.


Sandberg wont run with another technology person. She would need a policy person to give her credibility and help her win 1-2 states. She will get Florida based on the Jewish vote probably. So she needs to get a VP to win Pennsylvania and Ohio.
